Ghana has officially won the bid to host the ACI World Congress in 2026.
This marks the first time in 17 years and the second time an African country has had the opportunity to host this prestigious event after South Africa.
Since its inception, the ACI World Congress has been the flagship event for ACI Financial Market Association, bringing together industry leaders to deliberate, network and create lasting partnerships.
Over the years, the Congress has established itself as a crucial platform fostering dialogue and collaboration among key stakeholders in financial markets across the globe.
President of the ACI Financial Markets Association, Ghana, Lawrence Osilaja Boampong, detailed how Ghana put up a strong showing, highlighting the country’s resilient financial market and its journey to recovery from several shocks to beat countries from around the world to win the bid.
“This journey has not been an easy one. The bidding process was quite intense, with countries presenting their strongest case and but from the start, we knew that Ghana had a unique story to tell, one of resilience, growth and leadership in Africa’s financial markets”, he said.
Emphasising the hard work of the association, Mr. Boampong stated that “we have worked for months behind the scenes with our regulators, industry leaders, championing education and ethics among professionals. All of this came together with one goal, which was to show the world that Ghana is not just ready to host, but to lead.”
Maame Adjoa Thompson, Vice President of the association was optimistic of the prospects the conference presents.
“For us, this is not just about an event. It’s an opportunity to showcase Ghana’s talent, our financial sector, our rich culture, and of course, creating partnerships that benefit the Ghanaian market.”
As the leading financial market association, ACI Ghana remains committed to advocating for market developments, education and the promotion of ethical standards to build strong, credible markets that attract global attention and investments.
